A man dressed in a pharmacist's white coat stands on a ladder and arranges a kerosene lamp on a ledge in a Victorian drugstore in Central City, Colorado. Mortars and other lamps are also along the ledge. A sign that reads "The Pharmacy" is above the ledge. Medicinal bottles line each of the shelves, and pharmacy diplomas and degrees hang from the moldings above the bottles. A scale is on the bottom shelf in the lower right side of the image. A rectangular table with papers on it is behind the man standing on the ladder.
